    Description

    This is a beautiful Narino Monkey pendant.  It is 24k Double Gold plated to ensure the color does not fade.    Only people of high social status were allowed to wear such items (e.g. priests, royalty and warriors).  It was dictated by the type of social status you had as to what type of jewelry you could wear.  The original is placed in the Museum of Gold in Bogota.
